| | THE RED MAFIA: A LEGACY OF COMMUNISM |
 | | The mafia may agree in some cases to use its powers on behalf of others who are not generally under its protection. | | | Leaders of the mafia may succeed in bribing individuals anywhere in the criminal justice system - police, courts, corrections. | | | One cost of enforcing noncooperation is punishing violators of the oath; in the American and Sicilian mafias the punishment is death. |

| | S. G. R. MacMillan: For the defence of serious criminal cases |
| | Contract law is in its infancy, and legal recourse for contract violation is non-existent. | | | But it was still questionable as to whether these activities followed the classic organized crime model, or whether this was a network of criminals using prior contacts and imported skills to conduct illegal business. | | | Thus, since business was considered illegal, we find that as with any corrupt enterprise, enforcement is provided by hired strong men who operate to enforce what a limited and unclear legal system cannot. |

| | While Americans applauded the capture, the Russian government and citizens were outraged that the FBI, in their view, also broke the law by illegally obtaining information without a warrant, information stored on the men’s computer in Russia. | | | Charged in Federal Court with numerous computer-related fraud, theft and extortion, the men were held without bail. | | | Sources further stated, “If the Russians are sent to prison on information obtained illegally by the Americans, this will surely allow U.S. enforcement to use illegal methods to collect information in Russia and other countries.” A Moscow news service distributed a litany of comments by the enraged Russians: |

| | If the reports are true, it is no surprise that last year the Russian government decided to pay the $5 million bail to free Borodin from the Swiss jail. | | | In an effort to keep secret the Kremlin leaders' connections with Mafia operations, Russian authorities will not surrender alleged arms dealer Victor Bout, now wanted on an Interpol warrant for trial in Belgium, to international law enforcement agencies. | | | As the Russian press reported, the bail was paid under the direct order of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who in 1996-1997 worked in a Kremlin office as Borodin's first deputy before his appointment by former President Yeltsin as chief of the Russian Federal Security Service (the main KGB successor in domestic spying). |

Voronin, The Threat of Russian Organized Crime, Washington D.C.: U.S. Department of Justice, 2001. | | | However, when the authors take the network analysis as proof that there is no hierarchical, centralized structure among Russian criminals in the Tri-State area, which seems very plausible from the other data and the theoretical arguments presented in the book, they probably go a step too far. |
